Not making a complaint by any means, just something I noticed and wanted to let ppl know.

I was excited to solo in the frontier and get some uber exp bonus, but the outpost bonus and Easter bonus add up to 20%, they are not 20% separately.

Again, not complaining. Thank you Uth staff for doing this event. Greatly appreciated.


Here's to many more exp weekends, cheers.

Why do you think that? The opposite is the case. They are both effective and don't exclude themself. Both bonuses are separate and have separate printouts in the chat.

Its even so that the area bonus which this event uses is based on the sum of base xp and outpost bonus. So the area bonus you see has even more effect if you already have the rvr bonus applied.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

I think you did not notice the changes in keep situation which influences the outpost XP bonus. Since easter bonus is 20% for you and you saw 5.3m the 6.8m you saw yesterday would be way above 20%. But you will never know if the level of your target npc was the same.

42

i am reading off my chat. Killing a yellow mob that yeilds 34m exp, I am getting 1.5 outpost and 5.3 area.

if both outpost and easter yielded 20% wouldn't it be 6.8 and 6.8 ?

No. Easter bonus adds on top.

If you would get 10m XP for killing a mob.
10% outpost bonus gives you 1m extra xp.

The Easter bonus adds 20% on top of that it would give you about 11m*0.2 = 2.2m XP bonus

The area bonus is a bit more complicated in the region 30-44 but that in no way influences the way the outpost bonus works.

Outpost bonus is 10% if your realm owns the keep nearby, and 20% if your guild owns that keep.

I read on login Summoner's Hall is giving 50% easter bonus xp, but when I kill mobs inside I only get the 20-25% bonus.
